Is this right time to pursue CPL ?

I guess indian aviation is on boom!! So taking consideration of current senario will it be right time to do CPL in india?

Inputs appreciated!

I am thinking about the same for my son as well... Let me know if you find out the answer,

Only consider getting into this field if you have tons of patience, excess money and a back up plan to weather the storm. Aviation in india is a cyclical industry, its right now on the uptrend but eventually it will slow down and the jobs will dry up and then you will be left hanging high and dry with a fresh CPL . Every airline wants to rip you off by asking you to pay exorbitant money for the type rating ( excluding 2 airlines ) and ridiculous contracts. So think twice before stepping into the minefield of Indian aviation !
